For the psychotropic drug use RAP to trigger you need section O4 a,b, or c =1-7 AND at least one of these other items to be coded:  
 B5 a,b,c,d,e or f =2, B6 = 2, C7 = 2, E1n = 2 E3 = 2, E5 = 2,G3b = 1,2,3, H2b or d is checked, I1i or I1ee is checked, J1 f,i,k,m,n, J 4 a, b,c = checked or K1b. But even though it did not trigger I would always have a plan of care in place for someone who is receiving psychotropic medication. Jeanne ( I don't think I left any out but I am depending on several others to double check me)

This is the first time this has happened and I do not know what to do besides good documentation that I am aware the RAP should have triggered and whether I will be careplanning.
Psychotropic RAP didn't trigger on a resident who is on Risperdal and Zoloft. (Is on a skilled care Alzheimer unit)Section O is marked accordingly (my area)
Section B has both short and long term memory loss, no recall, poor decision making skills. B5abc and f marked as "1"
Section E wanders and not easily altered
 
What do I do?
Any help appreciated
